Michael Heaton MCs All LIT Up! 9.11 Palace Theatre

Minister of Culture Michael Heaton is Master of Ceremonies at All LIT Up! This 'witty and beloved' Plain Dealer columnist will be manning the podium with his unique brand of irreverant humor. For the first 100 tickets sold online* Heaton will give an autographed copy of his book!

All LIT Up will award lifetime literary achievement awards to three outstanding literary figures: the late Harvey Pekar, Derf, and the late Sheila Schwartz, and award Lantern Literary Awards to writers in 8 genre categories.
